Barcode: *X04-77787*
0699 Part No. X04-77787

Copy Protection: Safedisc 1.20.001

The install disc (CD3EE00DLX3.ISO) contained Safedisc copy protection. I spent some time figuring it out and eventually used a program called "UnSafedisc 1.5.5" from a long time ago and it actually worked. Essentially, it decrypted the .ICD file and generated a file called test.exe.
I deleted KALLISTI.EXE out of the root directory, renamed test.exe to KALLISTI.EXE and it worked. Perhaps that's why this specific Encarta Encyclopedia Deluxe 2000 is not on archive.org, but now it is.
I confirmed that it's fully working before uploading it here.

Works great on Windows 98SE! Childhood memories restored as I used to use Encarta long before I got internet!
